Rand Paul won my vote last night. I was down to Paul or Cruz for my top picks but Rand Paul definitely won me over. He is the the more genuine candidate. Cruz seems too rehearsed & phony. One thing we need in a president is honesty and consistency and Rand Paul surpasses those expectations. Paul has the most impressive voting record in the Senate and is absolutley the smartest, not to mention most conservative candidate. I like his plan to fix our economy and understands foreign policy far more than any of the other candidates.
No argument against what you said about Paul but you do realize this person has to win? I think Paul is the most “constitutional” but if he runs against Hillary, I just don’t see how he wins. We need someone to blow that place apart (the den of iniquity) and while he is a principled candidate, I just don’t think he’s what we need right now.
It's like Cruz gave a prepared speech while Paul spoke from the heart...
Those thinking about voting for Rand Paul, should know that he was raised as a libertarian. His dad, Ron Paul, was the Libertarian Party candidate for President in 1988. Libertarians have always advocated open borders. This is from the 1980 Libertarian Party platform:
17. Immigration
We hold that human rights should not be denied or abridged on the basis of nationality. We condemn massive roundups of Hispanic-Americans and others by the federal government in its hunt for individuals not possessing required government documents. Undocumented non-citizens should not be denied the fundamental freedom to labor and to move about unmolested. Furthermore, immigration must not be restricted for reasons of race, religious or political creed, or sexual preference.
We therefore call for the elimination of all restriction on immigration, the abolition of the Immigration and Naturalization Service and the Border Patrol, and a declaration of full amnesty for those people who have entered the country illegally. We oppose government welfare payments to non-citizens just as we oppose government welfare payments to all other persons. We welcome Indochinese and other refugees to our shores, and condemn the efforts of U.S. government officials to induce Indochinese governments to create a new "Berlin wall" that would keep them captive.
Pretty drastic NWO language isn't it?
